David Chalmers advocates the view that the phenomenon of consciousness is fundamentally different from all other phenomena studied in the life sciences, positing a uniquely hard problem that precludes the possibility of a mechanistic explanation. In this paper, I evaluate three demarcation criteria for dividing phenomena into hard and easy problems: functional definability, the puzzle of the...
Антология российской психотерапии и психологии March 31, 2023 О. О. Прокофьева
Позитивная динамическая психотерапия – это российский психодинамический метод с экзистенциальными аспектами, обогащенный транскультуральным подходом и поведенческими техниками. Наибольшее влияние на экзистенциальную психотерапию в ХХ веке оказала философия М. Хайдеггера и С. Л. Франка. Взгляды этих философов во многом были противоположны и образовали два смысловых полюса экзистенциализма. И. И....

The aim of the study is to identify the main cognitive problems of philosophical anthropology in the context of opposition or interaction between the experimental sciences and the humanities. The paper traces the process of formation of the concept of “consciousness” as an alternative to the concept of “soul”; presents introspection as a traditional method of self-consciousness analysis and...

The specious present (James, 1890/1950) is the phenomenal temporal structure of the representational content of my present experience. This article is a study of the mereological structure of the specious present and what it reveals about the nature of the mind. I argue that the specious present has certain features that cannot be easily explained within the framework of physicalism about the...

In consciousness studies there is a growing tendency to consider experience as (i) fundamentally affective and (ii) deeply interlinked with interoceptive and homeostatic bodily processes. However, this view still needs further development to be part of any rigorous theory of consciousness. To advance in this direction, we ask: (1) is there any affective type that is always present in...

In this article, we examined Revonsuo's view of consciousness, which he described as "biological realism".Essentially, Revonsuo attempts to consider the phenomenon of dreaming as a heuristic point of departure in elucidating the mystery of consciousness, which he describes as a higher level of biological organization in the brain.Because, according to him, the dreaming brain creates a kind of...

This review presents current research and scientific knowledge in body mind sciences through the lens of interoception, as a representative of the body; and time perspective, as the representative of the mind. This intertwining dichotomy has been a subject of discourse in many fields, all having the common denominator of consciousness. Our aim is to expand on the congruities of these seemingly...

The dimensional structure of phenomenal space and its relation to the brain have not been widely focused on in brain and consciousness studies. This paper postulates that focusing on the dimensional structures displayed in the relation between phenomenal space and the brain is necessary for understanding the integration of distributed brain events in binding. A related issue is why items and...

Vasily Sesemann’s manuscript Self-Knowledge, Self-Consciousness and Objectification explores the relationship of consciousness with self-consciousness and the subconscious, as well as various forms of objectification of consciousness. This manuscript can be attributed to a group of manuscript texts that discuss the origin of consciousness and the metaphysical relationship between matter and...

We have defined the Conscious Turing Machine (CTM) for the purpose of investigating a Theoretical Computer Science (TCS) approach to consciousness. For this, we have hewn to the TCS demand for simplicity and understandability. The CTM is consequently and intentionally a simple machine. It is not a model of the brain, though its design has greatly benefited - and continues to benefit - from...
